It started around 2005 with Janne recording a cover of Sir Lord Baltimore’s song “Woman Tamer”. He got in touch with drummer/singer John Garner to check if he was OK with Janne recording it. After hearing Janne’s demo, John offered to lay down drums and vocals. This was the start of a friendship and what almost became a new incarnation of Sir Lord Baltimore. Janne went to visit John in his house on Long Island. They jammed for a day, playing classic Sir Lord Baltimore songs and also jamming for hours (a 35 minute jam is actually down on file). John indicated he wanted Janne to be part of a new incarnation of Sir Lord Baltimore, as none of his old guitarists could do it, for various reasons.

Janna again went over to John and this time they had a bass player (whose name escapes me). The three put together a set of classic Sir Lord Baltimore songs such as “I Got A Woman”, “Hard Rain Falling”, “Kingdom Come”, “Woman Tamer”, “Master Heartache”, “Ain’t Got A Hung On You” and “Ceasar LXXI”. Some shows were booked in Sweden, for instance the Sweden Rock Festival 2007, but unfortunately, due to economic reasons John decided he couldn’t do it. Janne and John continued working on new songs together, but unfortunately nothing came out of it and the whole thing fizzled out.

John tragically passed away in 2015. Besides the new version of “Woman Tamer” the two also put together an, as yet, unreleased, jam track.
